You could consider adding Pact of Negation as a way to make all non blue players lose the game if combined with Hive Mind.

delta,

i used to run hive mind and pact of negation/slaughter

the rules have changed to make that interaction near obselete a few years ago,

for example, lands like city of brass or Mana Confluence would allow a mono-red deck to pay the blue etc.

pact is still a 0 mana counterspell though and still should be ran (i have one in my primer list)

hive mind ended up being too costly/high risk for my deck as it was tuned, but in a semi-casual or non-competitive playgroup, hive mind is mainly only good in nekusar multiplayer because it turns a single Wheel of Fortune effect into 2-5 copies, which usually ends games with nekusar on field

pact definitely should be ran, but more as backup protection or combo denial than to win games, as the rules that allowed lands that could produce colors other than those in your commanders identity while still being a legal land in the deck make the hive mind/pact combo a lot worse/harder to achieve

Right, thanks for the reminder on that, oh well it's still a good counterspell even without the interaction though.

butthurt_qrow - I was testing other stuff in place of Teferi's Puzzle Box and I have found that I miss that card a lot, so it will definitely be getting added back into the list. Also Whip of Erebos is a neat bit of sustain that I hadn't thought of before, so thank you I will see if I can include it.

goblinguiderevealpls - Memory Jar is incredibly strong, I'm honestly not quite sure why it has taken me so long to look for ways to get it into the list. I probably forget it exists any time I go to edit things. As for Notion Thief, I think it is extremely strong for lists looking to combo off very hard with things like Mind Over Matter + Temple Bell , but I am trying to keep this list more semi-competitive because of the audience I am playing with most of the time. This means I am probably running less combo potential. This leads to the next couple of cards, Dream Halls and Mind Over Matter. Dream Halls may make the list, but I will probably refrain from running Mind Over Matter for the time being simply because while I want the deck to be able to win, I don't want to have every game run the same, ending with me going infinite. Necropotence is probably a card I will find the space for as well. Phyrexian Arena and Geth's Grimoire are also cards on my radar that will find space, I'm almost positive. Commit / Memory is another card I have been looking at, and I guess I never got around to putting it in the maybeboard while I figured out what I was going to cut for it. I like Deadly Tempest a lot, didn't even know that card existed. Finally, regarding the Pact of Negation suggestion from Delta-117, yes, I know the card is great, but I also am not sure that I want to spend that large of a chunk of my budget for upgrades to this deck on it just yet. Long term, yes the card gets in here, currently, it's probably going to need to sit on the bench.

I have Sakashima the Impostor in my Nekusar deck as well, because he's able to copy Nekusar while retaining his name. This way, you have another way to go and deal tons of damage while accelerating draws.

butthurt_qrow - That's something I am very much in favor of. Definitely will be looking for a slot he can fill.
